    I think it's sick! I've been adding as much black as possible though. I think the more black the better.

    Speedway blue is one of the few colors I really, really like. Its a color that doesn't apologize and try to be all muted and subtle. It says I AM BLUE! Ain't nothing girlish about it.

    My only problem is, it is the color of the rival college football team. I'd be kicked out of the family for sure if I showed up with a blue truck :p (but I still secretly like it)

    If I could change the color of my truck Blue would be my first pick.

    My black Tacoma looks awesome when its clean, keeping it clean is the hard thing... I swear it rains dust here in Arizona everyday!

    IMO the Blue and black color combo is hard to beat, but I'm a little bias.

    if i had the opportunity to buy one back then i would but my SSM was given to me by father and i love it because regardless of the color its still a reliable DCSB taco. you really shouldnt worry about what anyone else says on your color preference especially if its blue because if your secure with who you are as a man/guy/dude/bro whatever then the fellas calling you gay or saying that blue is a girl color should roll off of you like nothing and besides they probably are jealous because they drive rangers....who put those things out of existence again? oh yeah we did:cool:

    Everyone has an opinion like have an arsehole. One of the biggest regrets people have later in life is giving in to social pressure. If you love the color, thats all that matters. While they are all about their "man colors", you'll be getting more pu$$ay and scoring the awesome chicks.

    Interesting.. I guess my wife is a post-op then? :p

    The color is awesome.. Nothing girly about it. It is loud and fun, just like the truck. Sure as heck better than the 10 million boring white or tan vehicles you see on the road..

    Tell your buddies to suck it. I came within a hairs breath of buying a speedway blue taco with the skewp and halfway regret not doing it. Speedway is one hell of a nice color.
